Thanks a good point Dawn. And I am making the partlet out of this
outragusly great and wonderful black wool that my mom got for some
suits. I made the stuff for her, and just *happened* to have some left
over. when i got the fabric i had to roll around in it, it was so
wonderful. Actually, I really sweated the placement of pieces because
the fabic was like $30 a yard-worth every penny, but not something I
would normally buy.

However, I am wondering if i should make the partlet out of one
layer, and just make the inside seams as pretty as I can, or should I
make them out of two layers and make the seems go inside? anyway have
any insight?
Dawn Says:
I made one of a pants weight black wool and just hemmed the edges. It
is quite warm and toasty as just a single layer. I was sweating in it
indoors, but comfortable on a sunny February afternoon outside.
It's my belief that the black ones were outdoor or winter wear, and
the white ones for indoors or better weather, and the sheer ones for
'best' wear.
